COMAR 7P.I FSDX – BRITISH BY DESIGN
The next generation of aluminium bi-fold, folding sliding door has
arrived from Comar Architectural Aluminium Systems.
Comar FSDX: Superior, stabilised rolling action with the quietest
roller in the industry and improved weight bearing capacity means
fit-once and reduced call outs. The new outer-frame is one profile
and is used for the track and jambs which reduces stock holding.
It is a mitre frame construction with 2 crimping options: pinned
cleats for creating pre-assembled outer frames that can be shipped
to site or mechanical cleats which
means the outer-frame can be
shipped to assemble on site – a
key consideration when larger
door sets are to be installed.
guaranteed. The intelligent design of the profile means the same
profile is used for the jambs and the head, providing mitre frame
construction and two options for site transport – preassembled or
stick using pinned crimped cleats or mechanical cleats.
Comar FSDX eXtra - Glazing
The view out of the FSDX door offers the homeowner that little
bit eXtra. With the slimmest sightlines available of 60mm, the
doors maximise daylighting into the home. Maximising glazing
without lacking performance the
maximum width of the doors has
been increased allowing door
sets to be over 4M with only 3
doors.
Comar FSDX eXtra Roller
The stainless steel dual roller
seamlessly integrates with the
stainless steel running track, with
a stabiliser the wheels always
remain in contact with the track,
which, means that even if the
track is slightly mis-aligned due
to building tolerances the smooth rolling action is not hindered.
The weight bearing capacity is increased to 120Kg which with the
FSDX’s glazing pocket of 62mm triple glazed or acoustic glass can
easily be incorporated. Comar FSDX eXtra - Hinges
The new hinge design
incorporates a central gasket
strip, which actively reduces
hinge gasket prep and site
installation. Even the roller
pillar has been treated with
consideration and pre-applied
foam pads seal the roller to the door. This increases home-owner
satisfaction with a draft-free solution and no call backs for the
installer. Adequate sealing between the sliding doors ensures that
a long-term solution is guaranteed.

Metal Technology’s System 17 Latitude high-rise curtain walling was
used extensively to create the desired aesthetic for this building. the
design process also involved developing a new triangular capping
to further enhance the clean horizontal lines of the building. System
